No Use For Randall.

Tie time has probably come for the
democratic party to get rid of Samuel
j. Randall if 1t would have a triumph
ant future, He calls himself a demo-
crat, but on no vital question that can
be named does he act with his party,
and his pretended alliance only operates
to his diScredit and destruction.
The last week has raised one ardent
apologist and defender for Mr.. Randall
"a man who insists that he has done
his duty, has worked steadily for the
peoples interests" aud should be kept
in office as long as he wants to stay.
This champion is Thomas V. Cooper,
chairman OF the Pennsylvania republic
can state committee. He says it
would be madness and ingratitude for
the republicans to SO rediStrict the city
as to leave Randall out, for he has
been an ally on the question of protec-
ton to the republican party"
Ibis IdDSteU SchlellCc pIOUdUll
means that Mr.. Randall has been an
ally of the republican party ON the
question OF protection, but the state
ment quoted is also Singularly and
sadly true. He has been an ally, in
deed, for protection to the republican
party. No man has done more than
he to protect it. He has been for
years an ally for that very purpose, and
it is fitting that the republican party
should now rally to the protection of
Randall.
This Is the view," frankly declares
Mr.. Cooper, chairman of the republican
state committee, taken of his course
by the leaders of industry in Pennsyl-
vania, who, by the way, contribute
nearly all the means for the conduct of
our great campaigns" To retain this
stool pigeon in Office the republicans
are going to continue TO gerrymander
the state in his interest. This is the
man who parades as a democrat and
demands to be elevated to power by
the party where he can serve year by
year as an ally of the republican party
and be mischievous as an obstruction
ist. How long is this mockery to con-
tinuei- Atlanta Consultation.
